4. Operation of the servo control
4.1 Inputs
The ISP has 3 inputs: 2 single ended inputs (no.1 at terminal 1 and no.2 at
terminal 5) and one differential input at terminals 3,4.
The current gain of inputs 1 and 2 (current mode) is given by:
8 x Ic x Ki
Gc = --------------- (A/V)
15 + Ri
Ic - amplifier rated continuous current.
Ri - input resistor in Kohm.
R1 for input 1
R2 for input 2
Ki - position of wiper of trimming potentiometer
Ki=0.33 when trimmer is fully CW.
Ki=1 when trimmer is fully CW.
The current gain of the differential input for R3=R4 (current mode) is given
by:
5.33 x Ic
Gcd = ------------- (A/V)
R3
R3 in Kohm
The current gain of the single ended inputs in velocity mode is given by (place
the appropriate Gc for each input):
400 x Ic x Ki
Gv = ----------------- (A/V)
(15+Ri)xR6
Ri,R6 in Kohm
9
ISP - Rev 6/95
The current gain of the differential input in velocity mode is given by:
266 x Ic
Gvd = ---------------- (A/V)
R3 x R6
R3,R6 in Kohm
The maximum input voltage at terminals 1 or 5 is calculated by:
Vinmax = 10 + 0.6Ri (Volts)
Ri in Kohm
The maximum input voltage at terminals 3,4 is calculated by:
Vdmax = 10 + R3 (Volts),
R3=R4 in Kohm
4.2 Velocity mode
In this mode op amp U1/A is employed as a high gain error amplifier The
amplifier sums velocity command and the tachogenerator feedback signal, and
provides the necessary servo compensation and gain adjustments, resulting in
stable, optimum servo operation.
This op amp is configured with two feedback paths:
One, in the form of a resistive T network, controls the DC gain of this
amplifier. The equivalent value of a T network is given by:
1010
Rf= --------
R6
Resistor R6 is mounted in solderless terminals so it can be changed easily
whenever the DC gain of the error amplifier is to be changed. The AC gain is
controlled by C1, R5 and COMP trimmer. Maximum AC gain is obtained with COMP
trimmer set fully CW. Setting COMP trimmer fully CCW removes AC gain and no lag
in response occurs. R5 and C1 are mounted in solderless terminals and can be
10
ISP - Rev 6/95
easily replaced in cases when COMP trimmer range is not enough to get optimum
result.
The output of the error amplifier is:
1 + SxC1xR5
Vo = (V1Gv1 + V2Gv2) x [ --------------------------- ]
1 + SxC1xR5(1 + RfxKi/R5)
V1,V2, - Input signals
Gv1,Gv2 - Gain of inputs.
Ki = Position factor of the wiper of COMP trimmer.
Full CW = 0.1
Full CCW = 1
The feedback element must be connected for negative feedback.
The polarity of the ISP servo amplifiers is such that a positive input signal
results in a negative voltage at terminal M1 with respect to terminal M2.
4.2.1 Velocity control using armature voltage feedback
By inserting R8 to its solderless terminals, the armature voltage is fed into
the error amplifier to be used as a velocity feedback. This feature is useful for
all cases when low regulation ratio and low speed accuracy are acceptable.
4.3 Current mode
In order to operate the servo amplifier as a current amplifier, the velocity
loop should be disabled. This is done by converting the error amplifier into a
low gain DC amplifier which has a flat response beyond the desired current
bandwidth. In this mode, R6 and C1 have to be removed from the circuit.
11
ISP - Rev 6/95
4.4 Current loop
Current loop control is obtained by op amp U1/B (Current amplifier) and R7, C2
which form a lag-lead network for current loop. The standard amp is equipped with
R7 (100Kohm) and C2 (0.01æF) to get optimum current response for an average motor
in this power range. These components are mounted in solderless terminals.
4.5 Current limits
The servo amplifier can operate in the following voltage-current plane:
-Ip -Ic
+V
Ic Ip
Intermittent
zone
Continuous
zone -V
Ic - Continuous current Ip - Peak current
Fig. 4.1: Voltage-Current plane
Each amplifier is factory calibrated to have this shape of voltage-current
operating area with rated values of continuous and peak current limits. In
addition the peak current limit is time dependent as explained in 4.5.1.
4.5.1 Time dependent peak current limit
The peak current is so designed that its duration is a function of the peak
amplitude and the motor actual operating current before the peak demand. The
maximum peak current is available for 1.6 second. The duration of Ip is given by:
12
ISP - Rev 6/95
Ip - Iop
Tp = 2.2ln ----------
Ip - Ic
Ic - Amplifier continuous current rating.
Ip - Peak demanded (not amplifier Ip)
Iop - Actual operating current before the peak demand.
Example:
A motor is driven by an ISP-15/65 amplifier at constant speed and constant
current of 5A. What is the maximum possible duration of a 20A peak ?
20 - 5
Tp = 2.2ln -------- = 2.42 seconds
20 - 15
4.5.2 Dynamic contouring of continuous and peak current limits
Most of the servo motors have reduced continuous current limits at high speeds
(Fig. 4.2). This phenomenon is due to commutation limits and iron looses which
become significantly high as speed increases and this leads to reduction of the
continuous current limit. The ISP amplifiers have the features which enable the
user to define the current limit envelope as closely as possible to the motor
operating envelope defined by the motor manufacturer.

4.6 Operation of the shunt regulator
A shunt regulator is included in the power supply section of the ISP. The shunt
regulator is a switching type, wherein dissipative elements (resistors) are
switched across the DC bus, whenever the voltage reaches a predetermined level.
The function of the shunt regulator is to regulate the voltage of the DC bus
during the period of motor deceleration, when there is a net energy outflow from
the motor to the amplifier. The amplifier handles this reverse energy just as
efficiently as it provides energy to the motor, hence, most of the energy is
passed through the amplifier to the power supply, where the returning energy
charges the filter capacitors above their normal voltage level, as determined by
the AC incoming voltage.
When the capacitors charge-up reaches the predetermined voltage level (Vr), the
shunt regulator begins its regulating action. The bus is regulated to this range
until regeneration ceases.
On multi-axis systems, it is recommended to parallel the DC bus of all the
ISPs.

4.7 Protective functions
All the protective functions (excluding 4.7.6) activate internal inhibit. There
are two modes of resetting the amplifier after the cause of the inhibit
disappears: Self Restart and Latch.
- Self restart: The amplifier is inhibited only for the period that the inhibit
cause is present.
- Latch: All failures latch the inhibit and only a reset signal will clear the
latch.
4.7.1 Short circuit protection
This protection is realized by sensing current in the DC line. Every current
peak above a certain value will inhibit the amplifier for a period of approx.
30mS (if in restart mode).
The amplifier is protected against shorts between outputs and either output to
ground.
4.7.2 Under/over voltage protection
Whenever the DC bus voltage is under or over the limits indicated in the
technical specifications, the amplifiers will be inhibited.
4.7.3 Temperature protection
Temperature sensor is mounted on the heatsink. If, for any reason, the
temperature exceeds 85§C the amplifier will be inhibited. The amplifier will
restart when the temperature drops below 80 §C.
4.7.4 Insufficient load inductance
Whenever the load inductance is too small, the current spikes will be very
high. In such cases the amplifier will be disabled.
4.7.5 Loss of velocity feedback signal
If the amplifier loses the velocity feedback signal it will inhibit itself. In
the "Self Restart" mode it will restart after a delay of 6-8 seconds.
4.7.6 Shunt regulator duty cycle
Whenever the ratio between "ON" time to "OFF" time of the shunt exceeds 5-10%
the shunt will be inhibited.

5.2 Mother Board terminals
The MBA-ISP/N is designed for 19" rack systems. It has screw type terminals for
both power and signals with identical designations as in the panel versions
except for the following new terminals:
21 Potential free Inhibit Input (+). See 7.1.1.
22 Potential free Inhibit Input (-). See 7.1.1.
The Potential Free Inhibit Input is applicable only when the "inverted inhibit
logic" is used (R18 in the amplifier is inserted). An opto-Coupler (IL5) is used
to isolate between the Inhibit signal and the amplifier circuit. Activating this
opto-coupler is done by inserting R1 on the mother board according to the
following relation:
R1 = 100 x Vinh (ohm)
Vinh - voltage in the inhibit input.
Standard value is 2.4K (For 24 volts) Source must be capable of source or sink

6. Installation procedures
6.1 Mounting
The ISP series dissipates its heat by natural convection. For optimum
dissipation the amplifier should be mounted with the fins vertical.
6.2 Wiring
Proper wiring, grounding and shielding techniques are important in obtaining
proper servo operation and performance. Incorrect wiring, grounding or shielding
can cause erratic servo performance or even a
complete lack of operation.
a) Keep motor wires as far as possible from the signal level wiring (feedback
signals, control signals, etc.).
b) If additional inductors (chokes) are required, keep the wires between the
amplifier and the chokes as short as possible.
c) Minimize lead lengths as much as is practical.
d) Use twisted and shielded wires for connecting all signals (command and
feedback). Avoid running these wires in close proximity to power leads or
other sources of EMI noise.
e) Use a 4 wires twisted and shielded cable for the motor connection.
f) Shield must be connected at one end only to avoid ground loops.
g) All grounded components should be tied together at a single point (star
connection). This point should then be tied with a single conductor to an
earth ground point.
h) After wiring is completed, carefully inspect all conditions to ensure
tightness, good solder joints etc.
A reliable connection with the spring type connectors is achieved with wires of 0.5mm 2
(AWG 20) stripped to a length of 11mm (.043").
27
ISP - Rev 6/95
6.3 Load inductance
The total load inductance must be sufficient to keep the current ripple within
the 50% limit (10-20% of rated current is recommended). The armature current
ripple (Ir) can be calculated by using the following equation:
0.5 x Vs
Ir = ---------- (A)
f x L
L - load inductance in mH.
Vs - Voltage of the DC supply in Volts.
f - Switching frequency in KHz.
If motor inductance does not exceed this value, a choke should be added (on the
motor branch) summing together the required inductance
Lch = L - Larm
Lch - Choke inductance
Larm - Armature inductance
6.4 AC power supply
AC power supply can be at any voltage in the range defined within the technical
specifications (chapter 3). However, if the power source to the power supply is
the AC line (through a transformer), safety margins have to be considered to
avoid activating the under/over voltage protection due to line variations and/or
voltage drop under load.
The nominal DC bus voltage should be in the following range:
1.2Vdcmin < Vdc < 0.9Vdcmax
Vdcmin - Minimum DC bus in the table of chapter 3
Vdcmax - Maximum DC bus in the table of chapter 3

7. Start - Up Procedures
All the operations of this chapter do not require power on the unit. The steps of
paragraph 7.1 must be performed before proceeding to the appropriate feedback sensor
section.
7.1 Common procedures for all amplifiers types
7.1.1 Inhibit and CW/CCW logic
Select the desired Inhibit and CW/CCW logic you need:
a) Disable by Low
Inhibit/CW/CCW functions will be activated by connecting their inputs to a low
level signal. If no signal is applied to these inputs the amplifier will be
enabled upon power on.
For this logic, R18 (for Inhibit), R19a (for CW), R20a (for CCW) should not be
installed.

b) Enable by High
Inhibit/CW/CCW functions will be de-activated by connecting their inputs to a
high level signal. If no signal is applied to these inputs the amplifier will be
disabled upon power on.
For this logic insert 3.6Kohm ( +10%)resistors for R18 (Inhibit), R19a (CW),
R20a (CCW). The power of these resistors is calculated according to:

ISP - Rev 6/95
7.1.2 Velocity mode
To operate in velocity mode the velocity loop should be enabled by converting
the error amplifier to a high gain PI amplifier.
Make sure that: R6 (30ohm), R5 (475Kohm) and C1 (0.022 æF), in solderless
terminals, are installed on the board.
7.1.3 Current mode
a) Converting the amplifier into current mode
To operate in current mode the velocity loop should be disabled by converting
the error amplifier to a low gain proportional amplifier.
- Remove R6 (in solderless terminals).
- Remove C1 (in solderless terminals).
In addition, you must make sure that the velocity feedback signal is not
entering the error amplifier. If a tachogenerator is used, make sure that it is
not connected to the amplifier.
b) Selecting the reference signal gain
The ISP has 2 single ended inputs (terminals H-1,R-32a,E-J1/3 and H-5,R-28a,E-
J1/1) and a differential input (terminals H-3,R-30a,E-J1/4, and H-4,R-30c,E-
J1/5).
The standard procedure recommends to use the differential input for the
reference signal.
Following are the input maximum voltage and impedance with the standard values
of input resistors:

ISP - Rev 6/95
7.1.4 Activating the loss of tacho protection (velocity mode only)
Activating the loss of tacho protection is done by installing R14 (different
value for 65V or 135V amplifiers),R15, and R16 as follows:
1530
R14(65V) = ------- (Kohm)
Vam
2730
R14(135V) = ------ (Kohm)
Vam
100 x Vam
R15 = ----------- (Kohm)
Ip x Rm
R16 < 10 ohm
Vam - Armature voltage at maximum application speed.
Ip - Amplifiers' rated peak current limit.
Rm - Total ohmic resistance of motor.
R9 should be calculated and inserted according to the tacho voltage at maximum
application velocity (Vtm):
For Vtm > 7.5V:
insert R9 = 301Kohm.
For Vtm < 7.5V:
2250
R9 = ------- (Kohm)
Vtm
38
ISP - Rev 6/95
7.1.5 Latch mode of the protective functions
Self Restart(D17 removed): The amplifier is inhibited only for the period that
the inhibit cause is present.
Latch (D17 - inserted): Failures 4.7.1-5 latch the Inhibit and the diagnostic
LED. For restart (after clearing the failure source), reset has to be performed
by connecting the reset input to the circuit common.
7.1.6 Activating the dynamic contouring of the current limits
If you do not use this feature make sure that R11 and R13 are not installed on
the board.
If you want to activate this function refer to appendix B.
7.2 Velocity control using tachogenerator feedback
When using tacho feedback, it is recommended to use the single ended input no.2
for the tacho signal and to use the differential input for the reference signal
in order to reduce common mode noises.
R2,R3 and R4 are calculated and inserted for two tacho voltage ranges:
For Vtm > 7.5V
R3 = R4 = 1.33xVdm (Kohm)
Vdm - maximum reference voltage at the differential input.
R2 = 2xVtm - 15 (kohm)
Vtm - Voltage generated by the tacho at maximum velocity.
For Vtm < 7.5V
R3 = R4 = 10xVdm/Vtm (Kohm)
Vdm - maximum reference voltage at the differential input.
Vtm - Voltage generated by the tacho at maximum velocity.
R2 = 470 Ohm
39
ISP - Rev 6/95
7.3 Velocity control using armature voltage feedback
The reference signal should be connected to the differential input and R3,R4
should be calculated and inserted according to:
R3 = R4 = 1.33xVdm (Kohm)
Vdm - maximum reference voltage at the differential input.
The armature voltage feedback will enter the error amplifier by inserting R8,
calculated for the two voltage types as follows:
For ISP-X/65:
R8(65V) = 1.3xVam (Kohm)
Vam - armature voltage at maximum application speed
For ISP-X/135:
R8(135V) = 0.73xVam (Kohm)
Vam - armature voltage at maximum application speed
IxR compensation
In order to improve the speed stability in various load conditions, an IxR
compensation is required. This is achieved by:
- Connect the Current Feedback Monitor (terminal H-7,R-26a,E-J1/6) to input 1
(terminal H-1,R-32a,E-J1/3).
- Rotate T7 to max. CCW position (minimum IxR compensation).
- Insert R1 as follows:
3 x Vam
R1 = ---------- (Kohm)
Rm x Ip
Vam - Armature voltage at maximum application speed.
Ip - Amplifiers' rated peak current limit.
Rm - Total ohmic resistance of motor.

ISP - Rev 6/95
8. Amplifier adjustment and diagnostics
Important remarks:
A. If all the previous steps were accomplished you may now turn on the power and
continue with the following adjustments. You may omit the step for current mode
or velocity mode according to your application.
B. In some applications, especially those where the motor electrical parameters
(total inductance and resistance in the armature circuit) are much smaller or
larger than normally encountered, the current loop response should be optimized
before proceeding with the following steps - See Appendix A.
8.1 Balance adjustment
If the motor is rotating with the command signal at zero voltage, a balance
adjustment will be necessary. Turn the balance trimmer (T5) as required until the
motor stops. As a rule, have the command signal connected and set to zero when
balancing the amplifier. This way, any offset in the command signal will be
canceled.
8.2 Current limit adjustment
The amplifiers' current limits can be adjusted without the need for loading.
Disconnect motor leads and connect a voltmeter between the Current Command
Monitor (terminal H-15,R-18a,E-J1/7) and the circuit common. Apply maximum input
voltage to one of the inputs to cause an error at the error amplifier (input gain
trimmer should be fully CW). In order to adjust the continuous limit - turn T3
(Ip) fully CCW to disable Ip, then use T2 (Ic) to adjust the continuous limit by
monitoring the meter readout. Full CW rotation of T2 will result in rated current
limit. After adjusting the continuous limit, turn T3 up to the desired peak
level.
The current monitor range is up to 7.5V and its scale depends on the amplifier
rated continuous current (Ic) and is given by:
41
ISP - Rev 6/95
Ic
Current monitor scale (A/V) : ------
3.75
8.3 Adjusting the motor speed (velocity mode only)
Adjusting the speed is done by adjusting the input gain trimmer of the tacho
feedback:
- Increasing/decreasing the feedback gain will decrease/increase the speed.
It is also possible to increase/decrease the command gain (change the fix
resistors of the differential amplifier) in order to increase/decrease the speed.
Best performance is achieved when the feedback gain is as close as possible to
its maximum value. Therefore, the final adjustment should yield with Ki of the
tacho input trimmer over 0.8.
8.4 Adjustment of the IxR compensation
If you do not use this feature, skip this chapter.
After following all the instructions in 7.3, you may improve the speed
stability in various load conditions by performing the following procedure:
a. Run motor at 2/3 of nominal speed.
b. Apply nominal load.
c. Increase IxR compensation (CW rotation of gain 1 - trimmer T7) until motor's
speed reaches the no load speed.
d. Notice that a high compensation may result in unstable operation of the
amplifier.
Reducing the DC and AC gains of the error amplifier by increasing C1 and R5 is
recommended. The final values depend on the type of motor and mechanical load, so
optimum results will be achieved by the empirical method.
42
ISP - Rev 6/95
8.5 Response adjustment (velocity mode only)
In most applications optimum response is achieved by adjusting the compensation
(COMP) trimmer. Adjustment procedure is as follows:
- Provide the amplifier with a low frequency, bi-directional square wave velocity
command (A 0.5Hz, ñ2.0V waveform is often employed)
- Apply power to the amplifier, and while monitoring the tachometer signal,
gradually adjust the COMP trimmer from the CCW toward the CW position. Optimum
response (critically-damped) should be achieved at some position before
reaching full CW on T4. Fig 8.1 illustrates the types of waveforms observed
for various setting o T4.
In some applications, especially those where the load inertia is much smaller
or larger than normally encountered, the standard compensation components values
of 0.022æF for C1 and 470Kohm for R5 may not allow an optimum setting of the COMP
trimmer T4. In fact, the velocity loop may be unstable for any setting of T4.
In these cases different values for C1 and R5 must be chosen. The following
procedure can be used to select these values:
- Short circuit C1 with a short jumper wire.
- Replace R5 with a decade resistance box. Initially set the box resistance at
20Kohm.
- Set T4, the COMP trimmer to approximately midrange.
- Input a 0.5Hz, ñ2V bi-directional square wave velocity command signal to the
amplifier.
- Apply power, and while monitoring the tachometer signal, gradually increase the
value of the box resistance until optimum response a depicted in Fig 8.1 is
achieved.
- Substitute the closest standard value discrete resistor for R6 and
remove the decade resistance box.
- Remove the shorting jumper across C1, and again check the response using the
squarewave test signal. If near optimum result are obtained, trim the response
using the COMP trimmer T4 for the optimum.
43
ISP - Rev 6/95
- If the previous step does not yield satisfactory results, if unacceptable
overshooting has been noted, substitute a larger value than 0.022æF; or, if
the response is overdamped substitute a smaller value than 0.022æF.
Repetition of this procedure should yield an optimum choice for C1.

9. Tables and Summaries
9.1 Adjusting trimmers
Six trimmers are installed on the ISP board with the following functions:
T7 (Gain 1) - CW rotation increases input 1 gain.
T6 (Gain 2) - CW rotation increases input 2 gain.
T5 (Balance) - see 8.1.
T4 (compensation) - See 8.6.
T3 (Ip) - CW rotation increases peak current limit (see 8.2).
T2 (Ic) - CW rotation increases continuous current limit (see 8.2)
9.2 LED diagnostics
Four LEDs are installed on the ISP with the following designations: Ic, In, Vs,
SO. Under normal operation only Vs should illuminate (Vs indicates the existence
of supply voltages). The following table represents the faults indications of the
LEDs:

ISP - Rev 6/95
Appendix A - Response adjustment - current loop
In most applications it is not necessary to adjust the current loop to achieve
the optimum response. When there are extreme electrical parameters in the
armature circuit (inductance and resistance) the standard components values of
0.01æF for C2 and 100Kohm for R7 may not yield with the optimum response. The
current loop should be optimized as follows:
- Turn the amplifier to a current amplifier by removing C1 and R6.
- Provide the amplifier with a bi-directional square wave current command (100-
200Hz, ñ2.0V waveform is often employed).
- Apply power to the amplifier, and monitor the load current either by a current
probe or by the current monitor.
If the current response is not critically damped, use the following procedure
- Short circuit C2 with a short jumper wire.
- Replace R7 with a decade resistance box. Initially set the box resistance at
10Kohm.
- Apply the square wave test signal to the amplifier input.
- Apply power, and while monitoring the load current, gradually increase the
value of the box resistance until optimum response a depicted in Fig A-1 is
achieved.
- Substitute the closest standard value discrete resistor for R7 and remove the
decade resistance box.
- Remove the shorting jumper across C2, and again check the response using the
square wave test signal.
- If the previous step does not yield satisfactory results, if unacceptable
overshooting has been noted, substitute a larger value than 0.01 æF; or, if the
response is overdamped, substitute smaller value than 0.01 æF. Repetition of
this procedure should yield an optimum choice for C2.

Appendix B - Current limits contour adjustment
The amplifier can be configured to have either continuous current limit or peak

enabled by calculating and inserting R11, R13.
The continuous current limit is speed dependent when R11 is inserted.
The peak current limit is speed dependent when R13 is inserted.
